What is up with the hate for water world? There has to be at least 300 other movies that suck harder. I could start listing them, but come on... Manos the hands of fate is still around.
Canada, home of the very nice people who probably eat people in their basements. I don't trust any country that hasn't started a war. Those people are way to nice, till you meet them in the U.S. then a screw comes loose in their heads and all hell brakes loose. There is a reason that cannibal and Canadian use a bunch of the same letters, and sound a like...
The worst cities in the world have no real names. They are typically on the outskirts of major ports in third world countries. In essence they are giant dumping grounds for first world countries. The worst of the worst are in south america and asia. Here are a couple pics:
FUN FACT!
Did you know the original description for hell was a place called Gehenna, it was a trash dump outside the walls of ancient Jerusalem, and looked much like the pictures I posted. Fires everywhere from people burning trash, dying children and diseased corpses strewn about.

Ha! You think the people of Glasgow have discovered the concept of buoyancy? If it's made of wood, it's used to build shelters, as fuel for their eternal worshiping flames, or as weaponry.
Still not as bad as parts of Dundee. It's like a pre-stone age society there, like standing in a Scottish version of I Am Legend.

I'd argue a surrealist alternate universe where surviving humans live in well-guarded but isolated public schools after a cataclysm occurred during the medieval age is slightly more optimistic that a society where they revere you as a god because you have magic called 'shoe laces'.
BEGONE FOUL DAEMON! PLAY YOUR UPBEAT MODERN HITS ELSEWHERE!
Hey there's got to be one guy amongst Wargamers who prefers pop to Heavy Metal and all its associated nonsense?
I understand that puts me in a very slim demographic, but still...
Hey dude, I find 99% of metal to be a pathetic attempt at soliciting the attention of one's parents - I love pop music. I dunno man... it isn't that Glee is pop, it's more than that. It's just... super, super gay.
I mean, I'm pretty gay, but it's too much even for me, and I sculpt my guns to ABBA, in addition to watching Jersey Shore, Sex in the City, Desperate Housewives etc. Glee is just a step too far, as far as I'm concerned. I can't hack it.

The fact that you 'sculpt your guns' at all means you can never join me amongst the ranks of the Bishōnen. The new millennium has allowed us men to discard masculine traits altogether; I've had people think I'm gay... and mnyah, I prefer that image to being perceived as some sweating, testosterone-fuelled lug with a beef steak for a brain (not to imply that you are; merely that it's the polar alternative)

Well, I'm intelligent and I wouldn't like to be perceived as a super masculine steroid addled brainless fether.
But at the same time, at least they would get approached by them slutty tanned women who wear too much jewerly and put out on the first date, who is a gay guy going to get coming onto him?
I think id rather look like a macho man than a raving homo like Lamar off Mannequin. You dont look like him do you?
We are arming Syrian rebels who support ISIS, who is fighting Iran, who is fighting Iraq who we also support against ISIS, while fighting Kurds who we support while they are fighting Syrian rebels.
It is my understanding that picking up women in gay bars is a 'pro tactic' for seeking the thinking women who don't want to get picked up and so go to gay bars...
There's no contradiction there...
Hard to get maybe?
Nope. To be honest I just look like a cliche nerd nowadays... I used to rock this getup:

Or perhaps they prefer to be "picked up" by other women?
Presumably the women are less creepy than the pick-up artists, who you swear are probably date rapists anyway, and even if they aren't they're creepy douchebags and usually worthless trash to begin with.

Having never done it, I can't talk from experience... but the theory is that you'll have more luck actually trying to start a conversation and win them over with personality than rely on that crassness that is physical attraction...
I'm one of those sad few individuals who was insecure enough to read just about every motivational guide on the web when it came to finding a significant other... neurgh.
Ignore the pickup artists. They're creepy douchebags, and not worth paying attention to, only caring about getting in the girl's bed and nothing more.
They're just a bunch of sluts, essentially, and generally unfun to hang around. Just being a nice person is better, but you have to MAINTAIN the nice attitude-- be nice, don't cheat, try to be considerate, etc. A lot of "nice guys" aren't quite so nice a month in to the dating.

I find it hard to believe that you would experience difficulty in attracting women (or dudes, whatever), Henners. Assuming the picture you posted is of you, you're a good looking kid, truth be told. Certainly better-looking than me, and I've shagged my fair share.

What? Picking up women in a Gay Bar is a Pro-tactic? My friend is Gay and has a brilliantly vindictive and nasty streak, he hates women who be-friend him just so he can be their gay friend. He calls them "F.ag-Hags" and blames lots of media mis-conceptions and things like sex in the city type programmes for perpetuating the "Every Woman should have Male gay friend" in their social circle.
Equally he hates straight men coming into his world as predators going for females like some kind of fish out of water turning Gay Bars into pseudo straight bars, it's the whole where can they go thing. They setup Gay bars etc for themselves because they weren't welcome elsewhere and now others are coming in and colonising their own institutions. It is a bit a strange thing to be honest. I think any man going to Gay bars to attract the opposite sex is a sleaze.

That's certainly not true. Hardasses are obnoxious to deal with and are best just ignored cause they certainly won't be paying attention to YOUR needs.
